中國石化新聞網(wǎng)訊 據(jù)油價網(wǎng)2023年8月29日報道,美國石油學會(API)8月29日報告稱,由于市場在權(quán)衡經(jīng)濟活動與美國原油庫存之間的關(guān)系,美國原油庫存大幅減少1148.6萬桶,而前一周減少241.8萬桶。
分析師原本預計美國本周原油庫存將減少290萬桶。根據(jù)API公布的數(shù)據(jù),盡管自4月以來美國原油庫存凈減少了近4400萬桶,但今年迄今為止美國原油庫存仍增加了近400萬桶。
美國能源部(DoE)報告稱,在8月21日的一周內(nèi),戰(zhàn)略石油儲備(SPR)的原油庫存又增加了60萬桶,但SPR庫存仍處于近40年來的3.495億桶的低點。按照目前的存量補充率,戰(zhàn)略石油儲備應在不到十年的時間內(nèi)恢復到2021年的水平。
API的數(shù)據(jù)公布前,周二油價上漲,美國東部時間下午4時16分,布倫特原油價格上漲1.28%,至每桶85.50美元,比上周每桶上漲1.50美元,而西得克薩斯中質(zhì)原油價格上漲1.44%,至每桶81.25美元,比上周同期每桶上漲1美元。
本周汽油庫存增加140萬桶,上周為減少189.8萬桶。汽油庫存比每年這個時候的五年平均水平低約5%。餾分油庫存繼前一周減少15.3萬桶后增加了246萬桶,目前已經(jīng)比五年同期平均水平低16%左右。
本周美國庫欣中心原油庫存減少223萬桶。

Surprise Crash In Crude Inventories Sends Oil Prices Higher
The American Petroleum Institute (API) has reported a massive 11.486-million-barrel draw in U.S. crude inventories, compared with the previous week's 2.418-million-barrel draw as the markets weigh the economic activity against U.S. crude inventories.
Analysts were expecting an inventory draw of 2.9 million barrels for the week. The total number of barrels of crude oil gained so far this year is just shy of 4 million barrels, according to API data, although there is a net draw in crude inventories since April of almost 44 million barrels.
On Monday, the Department of Energy (DoE) reported that crude oil inventories in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) rose by another 600,000 barrels in the week ending August 21, with the SPR inventory still sitting at a near 40-year low of 349.5 million barrels. At the current replenishment rate, the SPR should return to 2021 levels in a little under a decade.
Oil prices were rising on Tuesday ahead of API data, with Brent trading up 1.28% at $85.50 at 4:16 p.m. ET—a $1.50 gain week over week, while WTI was trading up 1.44%, at $81.25 per barrel—a gain of $1 per barrel from this time last week.
Gasoline inventories saw a build this week, rising by 1.40 million barrels, compared to last week's 1.898 million barrels dip in the week prior. Gasoline inventories are roughly 5% less than the five-year average for this time of year. Distillate inventories rose by 2.46 million barrels, after the 153,000 barrel draw in the week prior, and are already sitting somewhere around 16% below the five-year average for this time of year.
Cushing inventories fell by 2.23 million barrels.
